Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 126 When using ASP and Merant ODBC for Progress on IIS server

Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 126

This is the error I am getting when I try to run web based reports using ASP talking to the Merant ODBC driver for Progress91d on an IIS server.

Any Ideas??

Thanks in Advance

I'm assuming this is a brand new thing and it has never worked?

Can't speak to that combination of database and driver but....this may help (or it may not).

A similar error exists when using IIS with certain Oracle  data providers and it's a permission problem on the specific Oracle dlls.

Try tracking down the ODBC dll and make sure the following permissions are explicitly granted from the parent directory all the way down to the specific DLL:

straight ASP:
IUSR_??? read and read/execute
IWAM_??? read and read/execute

.Net:
ASPNET read and read/execute

Made sure the users where added because I had removed them trying to lock it down as much as possible, but still it did not work.

Error Type:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005)
Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 126 (MERANT 3.60 32-BIT Progress SQL92 v9.1D).
ALSO

when we ran it on an IIS box locally it worked.

We copied it to the IIS box in CA. where the live database exists and it did not work.

We did redo ODBC strings,names Etc to match the CA. connection

I have it working.

On the client that is running IIS frontpage is installed.

We opened the ASP document on it to look for problems.
When we did it said this document is not trusted would you like to trust Etc.
We said yes and presto it all works.

Can anyone give me info on the trusting of documents??
sry.  I can't.  And I'm the only one that's responded so, 'anyone' is basically just me.......
That's true you are/where very helpful though and I appreciate it very much.
thanks for the vote of confidence.   :)
